The effective spans for a simple one-way slab system, with an overhang are indicated in the figure below. The specified ultimate design loads on the slab are $$6.0\,kN/{m^2}$$ and $$4.5\,kN/{m^2}$$ for dead loads and live loads respectively. Considering the possibility of live loads not occurring simultaneously on both spans, determine the maximum spacing (in $$mm$$ units) of $$8$$ $$mm$$ diameter bars required as bottom reinforcement in the span $$AB,$$ assuming an effective depth of $$125$$ $$mm.$$ Assume $$M20$$ concrete and $$Fe$$ $$415$$ steel.
